CLASS & OTHERS

Class

This pottery class is located in the Shigaraki Kumoi forest.

 

In the spring, the mountain azaleas are in full bloom, and in the fall, the leaves are changing colors, making this a cozy classroom surrounded by the sense of the seasons.

 

Hide Fujimoto, a traditional artisan, gently and carefully instructs students in everything from basic hand-building to advanced pottery making techniques.
